About Ad Nauseam

Ad Nauseam, Instant, designed by Jeremy Jarvis first released in Oct, 2008 in the set Shards of Alara and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It see play in 2 formats: Commander and Casual. It's a key card in 12 combos.

A deck that focuses on gaining life or has ways to mitigate life loss would benefit from using Ad Nauseam, as it allows for card advantage at the cost of life. However, there are better cards like Necropotence, which provides a similar effect without the life loss limitation. Ad Nauseam could see play in certain combo decks that can win the game quickly after drawing a large number of cards, but overall, its high risk makes it a situational choice in competitive play.
